Mario ordered a pizza for dinner. When it arrived, Mario quickly ate
of the pizza. While Mario was getting napkins, his pet poodle ate
of the pizza.
about what percent of the pizza is left
Let's say the pizza was divided into 100 equal parts.
Mario ate 1/3 of the pizza, which is (1/3)*100 = 33.33% of the pizza.
After Mario's poodle ate some, let's say there were x parts of the pizza left.
The poodle ate 1/5 of x parts, which is (1/5)*x = (x/5) parts of the pizza.
So, the remaining percentage of the pizza is (100 - 33.33 - (x/5))%
We cannot determine the exact percentage without knowing the value of x, the remaining parts after the poodle ate some of the pizza.
To determine what percent of the pizza is left, we need to subtract the portions eaten from the total pizza and then find the percentage.
Let's say the total pizza was representing 100% (whole pizza).
Mario ate 1/4 (¼) of the pizza, which is equal to 25% (¼ * 100% = 25%).
Next, the pet poodle ate 1/6 (1/6) of the remaining pizza.
To find the remaining percentage, we need to subtract the eaten portion (1/6) from the remaining pizza (3/4).
Remaining pizza = 3/4 - 1/6 = (9/12) - (2/12) = 7/12
So, 7/12 of the pizza is left.
To find the percentage, we can divide the remaining pizza (7/12) divided by the whole pizza (1) and then multiply it by 100.
Percentage remaining = (7/12) * 100 = 58.33%
Approximately 58.33% of the pizza is left.
To find out what percent of the pizza is left, we need to determine the remaining portion of the pizza compared to the whole pizza.
Let's assume that the original amount of pizza was 100% (the whole pizza). Mario ate a certain portion, let's say x% of the pizza, and his poodle ate another portion, let's say y% of the pizza.
Since Mario ate of the pizza, he consumed x% of the original 100%. So, the remaining portion after Mario is (100% - x%).
Similarly, since the poodle ate of the pizza, the remaining portion after the poodle is (100% - y%).
To find out what percent of the pizza is left after both Mario and the poodle ate, we need to multiply the remaining portions: (100% - x%) * (100% - y%).
So, the percent of the pizza remaining after both Mario and the poodle ate is (100% - x%) * (100% - y%).
You need to know the values of x% and y% to calculate the answer. Once you have those values, you can substitute them into the formula and calculate the percentage of pizza remaining.
